eyebrow razor

This may be an incredibly dumb question :D but how do you use these?
Do you pull the fabrics open and slice the threads in between (like the scalpel type thread picker) , or lay the fabric flat and move this across the stitches?

I love those things for my eyebrows. I went and got my eyebrows shaped at a salon so now all I do is shave off the part that grows back every couple of days. Sure beats tweezing or waxing to me. I've never heard of using them for seem rippers but I think I may have to try it. Thanks for the tip.

Glad when I reached 50, my eyebrows started to behave themselves. I only have to tweeze an occasional stray about once a year. Love Mary Kay light brown eyebrow pencil. Looks so natural.
My SQA sent me some razors. I tried to use them on my stitches, but had difficulty because my hands/fingers due to arthritis can't do the grip/hold/pull all at the same time. I did dull one, but I am afraid I would not use again. Sorry SQA!

When I was a young woman, one of my cousins (who was a beautician) taught me how to shave my eyebrows with a razor blade. It's similar to the type that you use to scrape paint with, only it's long and narrow. Don't try it if your hands shake! It's painless and your skin doesn't turn red and puffy like when you tweezer them. But do not attempt this with out someone teaching you the proper way.
I never saw a seam ripper until my 30's. When I was a kid, my grandmother taught me to use a regular razor blade to remove stitches. A lot of times we would do it together since it's easier if you have more than two hands. I don't use a razor blade for that anymore. Fabric is too expensive to take the chance of slicing it up!
